Chapter 5: Potteroke
Harry and I looked at Sirius, who was grinning wildly. There could be a couple of reasons why he was grinning madly, but we knew.
"Harry. Haley. Your parents decided to throw a welcome back party for Haley. Just a couple of friends and family are coming" he told us. A couple of friends and family meant about 50 or so people, which was a lot. And with the party, it meant one definite thing…………Potteroke. It was our wizarding (just the family, Sirius, and Remus') version of the Muggle thing called karaoke.
"YAY! Potteroke" I yelled. Sirius and Harry began to laugh and I tackled the two of them to the floor. Sirius then transformed into a dog and licked us. My dad came in and raised an eyebrow at Padfoot (Sirius). A couple of weeks later, we had the party.
"The first group to sing will be Sirius, Haley, Harry, me, and Lily. We will be singing a new rendition of the muggle song 'Without Love' from Harsprat" my dad said. Harry, Aunt Petunia, my mom, and Dudley began to laugh hysterically.
"It's Hairspray James" my mom shouted between giggles. My dad turned red. We all went up and the music started.
Once dad was a selfish fool who couldn't ever think
Never thought of studying, though looked for pranks to play
Then he met mom and she made him the guy he is today
He's still lusts for her no matter what they say
Without love
Life is like dad being serious
Without love
Life is like Remus going crazy
Remus got a good chuckle out of that line.
Without love
Life is like Harry getting fat
Harry smacked the back of my head for that and began to laugh.
Without love
Life is like my mother playing pranks
Lily, I'll be yours forever
Cause I never wanna be without a wife
Oh Lily never set me free
No, no, no
I ain't lying
Never let me go, Lily
No, no, no
Livin' with some wizards
Dumbledore's everywhere we go
Who'd have thought we'd have him as a teacher
And see him as a headmaster
Dumbledore laughed.
In my dusty room
Harry kissed his second crush
But now they're out in public
And their snogging never ends
Harry slapped me on the back of the head hard.
Without love
Life is Haley baking cookies
Without love
Life is like Sirius as a genius
Sirius smacked Harry in the face with the back of his hand on 'accident'.
Baby please believe me
Never leave me without love
"And that was our shortened rendition of the muggle song 'Without Love' from HairSparay" my dad said. My mom rolled her eyes.
"For Pete's sake James! It's Hairspray" she yelled. He announced the next group and then they sang. We took turns singing and laughing. Then we danced to plain music.
"Can we have the father and daughter come on to the floor for a dance" Sirius and Remus both announced. My dad levitated me out to the dance floor and I laughed. My favorite song came on and I waltzed with my dad. I rested my head on his shoulder and savored the moment.
"You know daddy, they do these at weddings" I told him. My dad raised an eyebrow and held me tight. We continued to waltz.
"Will I be doing one" he asked. Although it's expected for muggles to do that at their weddings, witches and wizards also do it.
"It depends, do you want to be doing one" I asked smiling. He kissed my cheek and squeezed me.
"Of course, but if your husband ever hurts you, I'll perform the crucio curse on him" my dad said. I laughed. The song ended and we broke apart. My dad kissed me on my lips briefly. Draco reached out for my hand and I took it.
"Could I have this dance with the fair maiden" he asked. I blushed a deep red and nodded. He led me out onto the floor as a slow dance for couples came on. Then, I looked over and saw Harry dancing with Ginny. My mouth practically fell open.
"Now, now Haley; we wouldn't want you to catch flies" Harry told me. Next to Harry, I saw Ron and Hermonie dancing; they were in love, but were too blind to see it. It was like Harry and Ginny. Yet these two couples were dancing with their crushes unaware of the other's feelings. It was so painfully obvious; I wanted to smack them all over the head for not realizing it.
"Seems you might have found the boy" my mom teased me. I stuck my tongue playfully at her.
Please R&R! I'm probably going to wait for some reviews to continue. Remember the couples dance conversation; it tells you a little something about the series and the ending.
